Forces of Temptation

Chapter 64: 8-hour gaming battle (5)

Views:

Four hours after entering Squirrel Town.

A group of players who got nothing, took a break on a bench by the roadside to refresh their spirits.

All four of them exuded a strong sense of frustration.

One of the people with sharp stubble and spiky hair scratched his scalp irritably with his fingertips, cursing rudely: "Damn, it's so embarrassing! Lao Tzu packs the props, throws them out, ten 'cubic arks' I can get him back too!"

Another said: "Don't forget, there are restrictions in the five transfer stations. If you can't use the props, you won't be able to use them. Don't mess around."

Hedgehog was very upset. Hearing this rude remark, he would reply when he opened his mouth.

The only female player among them who had updated the system threw an eye knife, preventing the dispute from erupting in time: "Don't complain. She told the time just now. Now make a quick decision: should you find a place to rest first, or continue to search? "

The result of the negotiation is to persist for half an hour.

If you can't find it, just rest.

They had to get up unwillingly, picked a direction, and left slowly.

The spiky head's complaint gradually drifted away: "...Are the three of them cats, and they can't find their shadows when they hide?!"

At this moment.

The three cat people are sitting in a row under a green landscape trimmed into the shape of a sika deer more than 20 meters away from their resting point.

Nan Zhou stuck his head out to confirm their whereabouts.

Jiang Fang put his hand on the gap between his body and Zhiguan, rubbed his chin lightly against Nan Zhou's hair, and observed the situation outside with him.

Nanji Xing jumped on Jiang Fang's head with fun, and his little paws grabbed his hair, learning their movements and looking out.

The two of them are stacked together in harmony.

Confirm safety.

"Put the stone down." Nan Zhou turned around, picked the broken grass in his palm, and said to Li Yinhang behind him, "I'm here, will I let you guys fight?"

Li Yinhang responded with a sound, and gently placed the sweaty stone on the edge of the grass.

This green plant of sika deer is not very large, so it is not suitable as a hiding place.

On the road just now, she almost met that wave of people, which made her sweat a lot.

Li Yinhang let out a sigh of relief and just wanted to say something when he watched Jiang Fang twist a strand of his silver hair away from Nan Zhou's thigh.

"I'm taller, and my hair is very conspicuous." Jiang Fang said sincerely, "Did you crush you just now?"

Nan Zhou snorted: "It's okay. You're not sinking."

It's very pleasing to the eyes when lying on the lap.

... Li Yinhang felt that this scene was very grassy.

It's just a thigh pillow, how can it be like having slept.

She rubbed her nose and wanted to do something serious: "Mr. Nan, how high are the prices on the system side?"

Nan Zhou replied: "5000."

Li Yinhang: "What's your ideal price?"

Nan Zhou raised a finger.

Li Yinhang agreed: "Ten thousand? Very good."

This can top a copy of the income.

She's quite content with making money.

She was even a little afraid that she would charge too much and offend the system. The system had its eyes on them, and backhandedly played tricks on their level selection and assigned them to difficult levels, which would not be worth the loss.

To catch this bug, Li Yinhang felt that it was reasonable to ask for 10,000 compensation points.

Nan Zhou said calmly, "One million."

Li Yinhang: "..."

Jiang Fang smiled vaguely, and took the Nanzhou Star that jumped into his palm as Nanzhou's head.

"What's wrong?"

Nan Zhou saw Li Yinhang's jaw-dropping look: "I'm just raising the price. He can counter the price."

Afraid of attracting the attention of the group of people who had just left, Li Yinhang covered his mouth and tried his best to lower his voice and shouted, "... There is no such thing as you in the world to raise prices!!"

This is where the price is raised, this is clearly a provocation.

Nan Zhou frowned and was very puzzled: "But you bargained with the mother-in-law who lived in the Zhijin City Wall. After paying back so much, you still succeeded in the end."

Li Yinhang: "..."

... That's what the boss is not good at.

In the areas that are good at, they are extraordinarily free, and in the areas they are not good at, they are extraordinarily rational.

Facing Nan Zhou's sincere gaze of "seeking answers", she originally wanted to pat Jiang Fang on the arm and motioned Jiang Fang to go up and become Teacher Nan's teacher.

But after recalling the awe-inspiring moment a few hours ago, Li Yinhang didn't dare to make a fool of himself, and only gave him a wink.

Jiang Fang understood, hugged the South Pole Star, and explained to Nan Zhou warmly.

Jiang Fang did not start from the point of view of the world.

He said: "Mr. Nan, the one million price you set is enough to send us to the top of the standings."

Nan Zhou: "Isn't it good?"

Jiang Fang: "Then the game system is already equivalent to helping us cheat. Anyway, the balance of the game will be lost on the left and right sides. It is better to sacrifice a rest point."

Nan Zhou pondered for a moment, then returned to his own logic perfectly: "I didn't let them bargain."

Jiang Fang smiled and said, "Then what is the psychological price of our teacher Nan?"

Nan Zhou said seriously, "I can't tell you."

Jiang Fang was very interested: "Why?"

Nan Zhou: "The planners of the game might be able to hear what we said. We must guard the bottom line and not expose our bottom line."

Jiang Fang shrugged his shoulders at Li Yinhang, saying that he failed to persuade and was powerless.

But he was greatly pleased by Nan Zhou's cuteness, which was an additional gain.

Li Yinhang: "..."

If game planners could really hear this conversation, they would be pissed off before exploring Nan Zhou's bottom line.

But she was still a little uneasy.

"Are we… going too far?"

Li Yinhang was a little worried and said: "Today's trouble, we have attracted at least half of the attention of the whole server... Even if we really take this system bug and exchange it for the score we want, the system and other players will pay special attention to us. of."

Nan Zhou looked at Li Yinhang in surprise, as if he was very worried about her.

Jiang Fang asked gently, "Why do you think so?"

Li Yinhang: "What do you think... Now there are so many players who are watching our every move. If we get too many points at once, they will soon find out that the system update's 'prohibition of capturing dungeon creatures', It's directly related to the large amount of points we get."

"There are still a lot of players who haven't downloaded the update yet. If they find the effect of a bug, they may immediately jump into the dungeon to catch bosses and dungeon creatures, causing a chain reaction and doing business with the system, so we don't have any advantages. now…”

"It's a good worry." Jiang Fang said with a smile, "But, this will not happen."

Li Yinhang: "Why?"

Jiang Fang: "It's very simple, two points. We have chips, we have time. Other players don't."

Li Yinhang was enlightened by these three words.

Yes.

For game planners and hosts, Nanzhou doesn't have much time left for them.

The patch that forced the player to update was not made by the other party.

The time spent was not enough for them to make up for it.

In their opinion, this "Cube Ark" team can completely send the door to the gate of Squirrel Town when it finds that the deal cannot be reached and the oxygen is exhausted, directly select the level to retreat, enter the dungeon, and then slowly update the warehouse.

Anyway, for the "Cube Ark", whether it is trading with the system or leaving the boss in the town to harm other players, it is of great benefit to itself.

But other players who are jealous of dungeon bosses will not have this opportunity.

Even if they immediately understood what was going on and entered the dungeon with an old system that could capture bosses, it would still take a long time to go to the dungeon.

During this time, the system has plenty of time to rush new patches.

Besides, catching the boss is a matter of life and death.

Even if they really have the ability to take the boss out at the risk of death, however, they may have just released the dungeon, and what they will welcome is the fully promoted mandatory update patch.

Jiang Fang said with a smile: "So, the benefits brought by this bug can only be owned by one team."

Nan Zhou nodded: "Brother Fang is right."

At the same time, he turned to Li Yinhang.

"We're always going to be number one. At that point, it's hard not to be noticed."

Nan Zhou's voice was very light: "... Yinhang, you have to get used to it as soon as possible."

The block in Li Yinhang's heart was swept away.

She stared at the two, realizing for the first time that they were so compatible.

No matter what their personalities and appearances are, the confidence in their bones makes their souls stand side by side, and they are all in the same high spirits.

She quickly got out of the anxiety and said positively: "I will send the countdown!"

This dungeon boss, which was originally a high-flying dungeon, was reduced to pork on the chopping board without dignity, and the two parties had to bargain according to its worth.

Although the copywriting of the private letter became more and more impatient in the later period, in the end, it still managed to maintain a gentle manner, gritted her back molars, and reluctantly reached an agreement with them.

When Li Yinhang counted down to the last 15 minutes and the system sent the thirteenth private message, he successfully reached a deal in a tug of war.

It is worth 75,000 points, and on average each person can share 25,000 points.

Plus 3 A-level props.

However, judging from the meaning behind this number, it is obvious that the system is trying to suppress the anger.

Li Yinhang ignored its incompetence and fury, and said happily, "It scolded us three and two hundred and five."

Nan Zhou glanced at Li Yinhang suspiciously, counted the credit cards that he received, and said solemnly, "No. It's obviously 25,000."

Points are entered into their backpacks in the form of point cards, because the system does not have the authority to directly modify their points.

At present, the initiative is all in the hands of the "Cube Ark".

That is to say, the system must give rewards first.

They do not manually update to the new version of the repository until they confirm receipt.

When they saw the new points cards and props in the warehouse, the three "Cube Ark" had different thoughts.

Nan Zhou seriously hesitated for a moment, whether he wanted to be a hooligan or not. He took the points and didn't give it to the boss.

But they held this boss in their hands. First, they didn’t know how to use it. Second, they wasted a storage slot. Third, after the system developed a corresponding patch, it would still be recycled.

So he clicked the warehouse update button happily, and watched the terribly twisted monster disappear into his storage slot.

Probably because of Nan Zhou's "one million points" asking price, Li Yinhang saw this point card with a face value of 25,000 points, and the first sentence popped into his mind:

"… That's it."

But she immediately slapped herself in the heart.

That's 25,000 points!

Li Yinhang, wake up! !

In order to distract herself, she hurriedly asked: "The players who are still looking for us in Squirrel Town... What should I do?"

With the things in hand, she began to worry about their personal safety.

Jiang Fang smiled and said, "They are easy to deal with. Just use up your card."

Li Yinhang: "... ah?"

Nan Zhou: "Yes, use it up."

Li Yinhang couldn't think of the reason for the time being, so he simply listened to the boss, and swiftly clicked and used the 25,000-point face value points card that had just been credited.

The countdown seems to be coming to an end.

At least a thousand people's attention was all focused on the player "Li Yinhang".

Therefore, her scores and rankings, which rose like rockets and arrows, were captured by hundreds of people at the same time.

After a moment of dead silence.

The world channel is frying.

- They really have dungeon creatures in their hands! They are really dealing with the system! I guessed it right!

-right! In a place like Squirrel Town where elderly players stay, where can there be game items that can increase the points so much! It's not a douzhuan casino of paper money!

- Can dungeon creatures be caught? ?

—Ahhh shit! If I knew it earlier, I wouldn't update it!

The players in the squirrel town with their own plans also received this message at the same time.

They had to face the harsh truth.

The truth is, they were slipped away as fools.

Moreover, people's countdown is simply for the system to see. They came here baba, and it was purely their own humiliation.

They should have been furious.

But the reality is that after a brief debate, all the ambitious teams of players who searched Squirrel Town for the "Cube Ark" came to the same decision.

Get out of Squirrel Town.

- Go to the dungeon to grab the boss!

They're not the only ones who think so.

Many players scattered in the other four rest points, whether they are players who have made a sound in the world channel or have not made a sound, have made a unified choice at this moment:

into a copy.

Catch a copy of the creature.

And many players who don't have the courage to enter the dungeon to cause trouble, and regard Squirrel Town as their permanent base, are afraid of the "Cube Ark" and other team members who are still on the island, and decide to stay out for a night or two to see the situation temporarily. .

With just one action, the "Cube Ark" attracted players who had never met them to follow them, dancing like puppets.

The squirrel town has truly become a vacuum, a leisure paradise with only the three of them.

Jiang Fang could have predicted the actions taken by these players, even without seeing them with his own eyes.

He upgraded the warehouse system only after he clicked to use the loyalty card.

When the page was in an upgraded state and could not be controlled, he looked at Nan Zhou, who was murmuring with Li Yinhang to take stock of their new inventory, and his eyes were full of gentle warmth.

According to him, there is no need to return the door to the system.

Destroying the town and earning points are two things that are not contradictory.

Point compensation is the price the system should pay for its own setting bugs.

Using bosses to clear some players is an effective way for them to make reasonable use of system bugs and clear obstacles for the final victory.

Competitors do deserve respect and deserve to be treated in a fairer and more respectable way.

But... I have to say that dead competitors are really good competitors.

However, everything is up to Nan Zhou.

Anyway, those ambitious people rush into the dungeon, approaching bosses and dungeon creatures with a utilitarian heart, will always die a lot.

The system will also no longer allow their bargaining.

Thinking of this, Jiang Fang straightened up gracefully.

Overall, he was in a good mood.

He glanced at the time and said with a smile, "You two, let's go to the central square."

Nan Zhou: "What are you going to do in the central square?"

"The fireworks show in Squirrel Town starts at 6 pm every day." Jiang Fang invited Nanzhou, "We can go and celebrate."

Hearing this, Li Yinhang felt that something was wrong.

But what was wrong, she couldn't tell.

So she didn't take it to heart.

Nan Zhou stopped the movement in his hand.

He called him softly: "... Brother Fang."

Jiang Fang's perfect smile froze slightly.

At the same moment when Nan Zhou called out his name, he also realized what kind of flaw he had just revealed.

Nan Zhou looked straight into his eyes and asked, "How do you know that there will be fireworks in Squirrel Town every day at 6 pm?"

The author has something to say: Nan Zhou, who learned from Li Yinhang's bargaining: ... So why can't the price be raised to one million? Is it negotiable anyway? :,
